In relation to computation & the nature of reality, we have to realize (We don't know what we don't know), & (We need to always assume there is something else we are missing). For example with the QCD there is the conservation of "Color" but this doesn't reference back to the conservation of energy via momentum exchange dynamics. The reason why this is important = (RGB) colored legos fut together nicely by color & integer values, but that doesn't reference back to the interrelations of energy density interactions, and the conservation of energy. We could be developing predictive models that intermediately (through calcs) do something different than what the system is doing, but still render the right answers, we need to be able to relate these proportionalities & predictive models to a the actual momentum exchange dynamics.

When we realize that we don't find the full picture, & that there is more to know, it can lead to more things we realize we care about. I think if we all remain honest while looking for answers and new physical dynamics, we will find more things that we care about. New things that we couldn't have known about if we didn't look.

Dude, i absolutely have so much admiration for their conversational dynamic. Lex will just seemingly disregard what Stephen says after a long response, and you might think “ok? I guess just moving on?” Only, Lex has a really unique mind , and Stephen knows that Lex needs to delve into *insert* other correlated topic and nuances, make sense of it to himself in the context of the whole convo, and then recall back to where you first thought he was cutoff and not given sauce for a whole abstract personal opinion. Stephen will then re package the concept and everyone gets it now. It’s unique to them, at least i ln my opinion, one of the smartest dudes ever

Honestly, hearing a professional talk through GPTs outputs is fascinating. You should definitely do more!

The way Stephen's built a wholistic model of the world is such a gift to get to witness. What a fascinating mind! It inspires me to keep being curious, to keep digging & see where it leads.

Amazing calm methodical mind. Stephen's explanations are more clear every year for us plebes. He uses simple analogy models to help us comprehend the basic underlying lanquage structure that chatGPT also uses to compute. And in the process we delve deeper into the "laws of thought"?

Lex, I'm sure that your brilliant podcast guests also see your genius and vision. Stephen's incredible persistence for new learning and knowledge, combined with his innovative mindset, is truly impressive!

This dialogue isn’t just a textbook… it’s a library… many many insightful chocolate flakes sprinkled across 4 hours… Worth watching each section multiple times especially the ones on entropy, computationally boundedness coherent existence and of course more pragmatic things like impact and use of LLMs. Thanks a lot Dr. Wolfram and Lex to for having given me different perspective on concept of Entropy… concept of discrete space is really mind bending too… Request you for more follow up discussions on this!!! ❤

This is absolutely at the edge of science at the moment. I am glad to have studied some math and physics, and have read some of the philosophy books to be able to follow this dialogue somehow. Does someone have some advice on which other scientists are researching and reporting on similar high-end science these days?

I know it's cliche... But his passion is contagious!

Absolutely love seeing Stephen Wolfram on here every time. He’s always bringing up interesting ideas or brings a unique perspective on certain topics. Quite enlightening.

I’ve listened the last 3 episodes with Wolfram at least 2 or 3 times each so I’m very excited to hear this.

Love the chat you guys had at MIT and I'm excited to listen to the followup here. Was so happy to see you there Lex!

Stephen Wolfram, my favorite guest, super excited to enjoy this!

this is one of my favorite episodes!, his so broad vision and optimism about the future is fascinating!

This is amazing. People who watched 4+ hours of this gem should meet up. Loved the comments section too.

This is BY FAR the most important interview with Wolfram. His vision for the future has never been more appreciated than right now. Being a programmer I need to know what the impacts of this new GPT toolkit will be. I found this video incredibly useful.

Stephen is truly inspiring. I had a couple of aha moments during that podcast.

Looking for my daily fix to have my "mind blown" -- definitely found it here...thank you both!! Keep the party going...cheers, well done.

I am impressed by your ability to have such long discussions, repeatedly, with people at the top of their game, in positions of influence and power. It seems obvious that they also derive some benefits or satisfaction from these interactions. You pose challenging questions, and their explanations help then crystallize their own understanding. I have learned that constructive use of knowledge is the true test of understanding: i.e. when we write/explain something, we MUST clarify our own undersanding, more than just "recognition" of ideas we have heard/read.

Oh my,.. I always love to see you and Stephen talk. It always blows my mind and most likely gets over my head, but man, I love it.

Well, it took me 2 weeks to finish listening to this -- with as much rewinding and re-listening as I suspected would be involved after the first 2 minutes, 2 weeks ago... but I finally made it through. Wild, wild, unfathomably wild stuff. Much appreciation for putting in this much time to get this information out to the people.

Such a great interview

i will the first to join cs cx courses, that sounds like so much fun. i code for a living myself and tbh i do not fear getting replaced. i too think that we will have a additional layer on our programming languages, just like we dont write in assembler anymore. in fact 80% of my coding is already done with chatgpt. whats left is the fun part. the translation of vague business needs into prompts for the machine and the subsequent iteration to make the result fit the need well enough. often i can tell that the first answere will be of no use. what i have learned is that you should proceed anyways and then add one or two details step by step to make the machine understand what you need. its the same process you do as a productowner, understanding the stakeholder needs. or with a coworker, helping him to understand your intend in a codereview. in my mind its the way of thinking that makes me a good programmer. not the code i write, thats my shovel. i am happy to trade my shovel for a excavator. we are in the business of building things after all :)

That would be so, so great. Greatest conversations ever were part 1 and 2. Kind of did a Wittgenstein of information philosophy there

Nice. Another episode with my favorite guest ever.

Superb conversation, love hearing you both sparring eachother like this! Thank you!
